From Cantos for James Michener: Part II
CXVI.
A man walked into a bar at sunset, took his hat off and wiped his brow with the back of his shirtsleeve.
"After a hard day's work you deserve a cold beer," said the bartender.
"Gimme a cold beer," he said. "It's been a long day but it's all worth it now."
The rest of the work crew walked into the bar.
"We've been working hard and now working time is through," they said.
"There's nothing like a cold beer when all is said and done."
"Man this beer hits the spot," said one, "all day long, while I was working, I was imagining how good this was gonna taste."
"Yeah, there's nothing like an ice cold beer after a hard day's work," said another.
